Does the western audience even understand what ear blushing is supposed to be implying here?
>>118960260
"Blushing from ear to ear" isn't an uncommon phrase.
Why is Seibah so lewd?
>>118960260
It's totally normally for your ears to get red when you blush. It's not a culture-specific thing.
>>118960260
Common white trait. Unsure if it occurs within asian populations.
>>118959994
She is a million times better when she is serious.
>>118960324
It has a specific meaning in Japan and Korea, sort of like how a nosebleed is used in comics. It's basically arousal caused by or associated with ovulation.
>>118959994

>It's basically arousal caused by or associated with ovulation.
>>118960816
Wait, that was the point? I am a fucking retard.
>>118959994
She is still as perfect as always.
It's too bad that she's basically removed from the story after this episode.
>>118960816
>>118961035
I like genki girls, but not particularly for the times when they're serious.
I certainly understand why people would think so. It's the same logic behind tsunderes.
>>118961101
Who cares about the reasons, the important thing is that we like them!
What does it mean?!
>>118961531
Kotomine is the white man.
>>118961531
Talk about a nail in the coffin.
Why did Shirou not even try to defend himself or use projection in that entire encounter with Medea?
>>118961631
Because she had a hostage?
>>118961631
Because she had a hostage
>>118961421
Zecchan a qt.
I wonder if we'll ever see her again?
>>118961654
>>118961670
But why not even attempt to parry Saber's attack instead of just jumping in front of it?
>>118961860
Because she had a hostage?
>>118961860
His body is literally the sheath of Saber's sword. It would be completely impossible for him to anything other than get stabbed by her.
>>118961860
Look, Ufotable was just making shit up, okay? This was all supposed to happen in his living room and there was no fight, but they had to have some sort of action scene for the season finale. Roll with it.
>>118960107
Marry a rhino? You're some kind of deviant?
>>118961968
Uh, except that happens pretty much the same in the VN. Saber charges at Rin and Shirou just jumps in the way to block her. It was actually a bit more brutal originally.
>>118962003
>Not marrying this goddess
Your homosexuality is your own business, anon.
>>118961860
Saber moves really fast, it's kind of impressive that he could even get in front of her at all.
>>118961631
Where's "Me feet hurt"?
You had one job, anon.
>>118962156
>it's kind of impressive that he could even get in front of her at all.
He literally fights her 1v1 and kills her in the next route.
Saber ain't got shit on Shirou
>>118962156
She was kinda restraining herself, even if she couldn't stop Caster's order.
>>118962155
Sorry, I pick from the finer sort.
>>118962202
That was with Archer's arm, he's practically a Servant at that point.

You mean all 3 routes? They both somewhat admired each before each route began.
>>118962318
She's bi and kinda slutty.
She wants Shirou and EMIYA on her both wholes, while she eats Saber's royal pussy.
>>118962361
You're technically marrying a dead person.
>>118961035
You should really get that checked out anon.

So how did Kirei survive Caster?
>>118962549
she didn't check the corpse.
>>118962489
Hopefully yes.
>>118962549
I think the better question is how Caster survived Kirei.
It was all keikaku
>>118962549
Douchebag priest magics. He's got those remaining Command Spells, so he probably used him and his magic surgeon skills to stitch himself up.
>>118962549
No he dies and Angry Man jew revives him, it's explained in HF.
>>118959994
Archer's still worried about Taiga.
How the bloody fuck didn't they get married?
Did Archer and Taiga hook up in his timeline? I hope so. I hope we get to see it even more so.
FUCK MAN.
>>118962549
Skellingtons are pretty unthreatening, she clearly didn't really care about killing him and just wanted to force him out.
>>118962607
>he dies
Wouldn't he have stopped being Lancer's Master one he died?
>>118962549
He fakes being dead. Rin asks Caster if she checked his pulse or something, saying Kotomine doesn't die when he's killed, etc.
Since Kotomine quite seriously doesn't have real heart, he can fake it real good.

>>118962931
I think it's the first Saturday of April, so the 4th.
>>118962659
In archer's timeline he probably watched everyone die around him as his need to save people inevitably caused them to die. Taiga was the last one left but she too got cut down by the inquisition squad we see in the dream, causing him to snap, his ideals shattering, and ending humanity.
>>118962931

So why did Rin stay overnight and what was the point of the date?
It seems like she is trying to cheer him up, but there is nothing wrong with Shiro in the first place.
>>118963174
HAHAHAHAHAHA
go kill urslef
>>118963268
>but there is nothing wrong with Shiro in the first place
Maybe it's because I'm a saberfag, but is it just me or did Saber have more "cute" scenes than Rin did in the date? I'm not complaining since I loved it all, but I felt bad for Rin overall.
>>118962796
>>118963175
Not again faggots.
>>118960260
ear blushing is the common one, never seen face blushing
>>118963383
If Shirou is so "empty" and "broken", why is he able to fall in love with some random girl like a normal human being?
>>118963384
Disagree. The banter between Rin and Shirou was gold.
>Nicesu
>>118963413
Cause that's like, part of his character arc; learning to find his own happiness.
>>118963268
>broken human with survivor's guilt who feels guity in enjoying life and who makes stupid choices because he absolutely must sacrifice himself before anyone else may get hurt
Yeah, he's fiiiiine, he even lost Saber because he's so fine.
>>118963413
Did any of his behaviour during the entire duration of that date seem like a normal human being to you?
>>118963268
Rin wants the Jackhammer, but she can't admit it.
>>118963384
Rin had cute,troll,sexy scenes throughout the episode while Saber only had cute and suffering scenes.
>>118963413
He's broken, not a faggot.
Plus he's a teenager, he gets a hardon just by feeling a hard breeze.
>>118963383
But Rin only finds out about his traumatic past after the date?
>>118963504
Did you miss the entire conversation that led to the date in the first place? You know, how he talked about how he only wanted others to feel happy? The whole point of the date was her wanting to make him happy for a change.
is this the place to post lovely women of fate
because i've got one
>>118963504
Everyone and their mother can tell there's something seriously fucked up about how his mind works from way before that. The first clue they get is when he rushes to save Saber in the graveyard battle at the beginning and it's pretty clear he's got a thing going on.
Rin decides on the date after Shirou explains plainly that he has no clue how to have fun since it's not something he thinks about.
They know he's nuts, she just doesn't realize to what extent until after Ilya is killed.

>>118963491
>He's broken, not a faggot.
By that logic Kotomine is a faggot because he can't love.
>>118963742
I thought Kotomine was a faggot because he had a manharem of sex friends
>>118963742
He fucked a sickly woman anyways and impregnated her.
>>118963804
>Implying you wouldn't fuck a sickly woman if she was that fucking adorable.

>>118964509
Why are rinshitters so incredibly cancerous?
>>118964613
Getting the story is cancerous?
UBW is about Shirou learning that while he most likely can't save everyone, it's not wrong to want to try, because there's beauty in helping people. At the same time he learns that in order to save everyone, he needs to save himself; that's where Rin comes in.
I forgot how mean Rin can be sometimes. Especially those last few minutes ontop of the tower when Shirou comes about.
>>118964662
It's for pretty good reason. Shirou is just too dense.
>>118964662
She is trying to do it to protect him. Just like archer, when she is uncharacteristically cruel there is usually an ulterior motive.
>>118964662
It was her putting on a tough face. I mean did you see Shirou? He was stumbling around and bleeding all over the place all the while saying he still wanted to fight. She was trying to keep him from getting killed.
>>118964727
But that same neutron star density ends up saving her
>>118963384
they packed in some extra scenes for her this episode since she's going to be doing nothing but being "tortured" for the next half season and they wanted to appease the Saber fans before they start frothing at them mouth
>>118964662

All in all, Shirou is the best girl.

>>118965545
I think both of their relationships have good chemistry. However what I meant by Saber and Shirou being more complements is that it's kinda beautiful how both of their character motivations stems from them being completely selfless and at the end of both of their routes they both use each other to move on from their past etc etc. Not just Shirou likes cooking and Saber is a glutton.
Rin Tohsaka is nice, but whatever Rin does in whatever route she just Rin, she doesn't really change. Which is what her stick is. However, she doesn't particularly need Shirou like Saber does and we see how she marries for her duties or whatever.
Rin only becomes interested in shirou as he shows mage potential, she's only interested in his mage potential to continue the tohsaka line.
>>118965829
>we see how she marries for her duties or whatever.
What? So she isn't allowed to have a life outside her route because she is a heroine of the game?
>>118965829
>but whatever Rin does in whatever route she just Rin, she doesn't really change
But she does though. UBW has her growing to understand that the traditional set by her father and her family may not be the only way for things; she learns from Shirou's point, and how grew as a mage. I mean just an episode ago it had her talking about the benefits he had compared to her; his life was more open, less rigid and confined to tradition. Rin herself branches out in UBW because of her relationship with Shirou; I mean the fact that she falls in love with him a clue to that. He's a goddamn heretic.
And yeah, Shirou and Saber having the same ideals is great, but what i love about Rin and Shirou is the fact that she provides an outsider's perspective. You can't really get that with Saber or Sakura, since they have their own issues, but Rin clearly sees there's something wrong with Shirou, and wants to try her best to help him.
>>118965936
That's actually pretty wrong. And Shirou doesn't really have that much potential to boost the Tohsaka line.

>>118965483
>However, I think Shirou and Saber just complement each other more. It's even more obvious in other routes how much they do.
Is that your impression?
If anything, from all their squabbles with eachother to judge. I would be inclined to say that they compliment eachother the least of the three.
Not to say that Saber is a poor girl or character in general. But just overall the worst pairing with Shirou.
And unlike with say, Rin. Or Sakura too for that matter even though Sakura may be more jaded than Rin.
It doesn't feel like Saber's and Shirou's squabbles with eachother are mere teasing, which is very much so the impression one would have from the interactions between Shirou with Rin and Sakura.
As if Shirou and Saber have the most qualities about eachother that legitimately grinds eachothers' gears to the point of them both actually infuriating eachother to various extents. For whatever it's worth, Saber is also the only one in the story that without manipulation still legitimately goes out to kill Shirou with the intent to kill Shirou in a bad end. While Rin was never out to end Shirou's life. And Sakura was being manipulated.Saber x Archeris better anyway.
Also partly because they honestly have less of the above mentioned problems with eachother.

Saber was manipulated in that bad end though.
>>118966128
This. Saber is better as a bro, Sakura and Rin are better life partners for Shirou.
Can we all agree that Deen's UBW was better than Ufoshit version?
I bet secondaries would disagree but who cares, right?

I'm saying Shirou impact on Rin's development as a character is very minor. I'll argue that Rin wasn't really that rigid in the first place, but even if that's false, she didn't need to fall in love with Shirou to get to that point..
>>118966128
They keep each other at check, is there something really wrong with that? Opposites don't attract, they both use each other to see the faults in their own ideals. Which is why I think they complement each other more.
>>118966128
Shirou and Saber's interaction is very genuine, and since Saber is a very old-fashioned person, she doesn't quite follow modern examples of teasing/sarcasm.
I like Shirou and Saber because they're very genuine and honest around eachother, they don't go word-dancing around what they're actually saying.
I do think Shirou and Rin are a better pair though.
>Saber x Archer is better anyway.
Man I really want Saber and Archer to have more scenes together. The only times they speak to eachother are in very serious circumstances.

Saber is literally a dog in the qt body of the King of the Britons.
>>118966337
Saber doesn't need to fall for Shirou to know the error of her ways either.
>>118966367
That really caught me off guard. He sounded genuinely broken up.
Is this what Kiritsugu would sound like when he found Shirou?
>>118966367
what would happen to shirou if fuji-nee was killed?
>>118966017
I'd also argue Rin is the only person that sees something deep inside Shirou has died, even before this is revealed to her by Caster.
Saber has probably seen plenty (given her history) of men who have lost parts of themselves during her time as a leader, so she's less affected/prepared to deal with it. It's more a fact of life to her.
I don't know if RinXShirouXSaber is a solid pairing (despite their mutual sexual interest in one another) but I do think it works as the only real "family" in FSN, which could be why a lot of people see them as a couple/triad.
Sakura has her own journey outside this sort of family, and while she doesn't really function well as a love interest, (because since both her and Shirou have entire parts of themselves they have lost) her desire for Shirou makes sense. Her desire for a person like Shirou makes sense, I should say.

Heart of steel route?

>Is this what Kiritsugu would sound like when he found Shirou?
More or less, and the parallel in this scene just hit me. Shirou essentially has Kerry's color palette here.

Saber notices all of the little things, like his room being void of decoration and brings up the big issue in her own route.
Fuck Rin, Kirei best girl.
>>118966437
Emiya Shirou will turn his mind to steel
and become a super hero.
>>118966399
That bitch needed three kings, kiritsugu, and then his son to fucking realize she was chasing after something stupid.
>>118966337
I am not going to critique any character relationships here.
But what is your point really? Saber doesn't actually need to fall in love with Shirou either.
Unlike Archer who ended up in an endless hell that deteriorated his mental state.
Saber's destination is the paradise of Avalon, where she will rest for whatever time is needed. Mended by fairies and by large being rejuvenating to her mental state.
So even without Shirou, Saber will eventually enter paradise and earn her temporal peace.
And Saber is old. She has already lived a great life. She could have died by that tree after the battle of Camlann without even being summoned to any grail wars, and it would have been a great life. And whether or not Saber realizes that with Shirou or later in her life. Her end still looks promising.

I was waiting for this.

Doesn't make me want to fuck Rin less.
